Kejadian 24:12

24:12 He prayed, “O Lord, God of my master Abraham, guide me today. ¹  Be faithful ²  to my master Abraham.

Keluaran 4:5

4:5 “that they may believe that the Lord, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you.”

Matius 22:32

22:32 ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? ³  He is not the God of the dead but of the living!” ⁴ 

Markus 12:26

12:26 Now as for the dead being raised, ⁵  have you not read in the book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, ⁶  how God said to him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the ⁷  God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? ⁸ 

Lukas 20:37

20:37 But even Moses revealed that the dead are raised ⁹  in the passage about the bush, ¹⁰  where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. ¹¹ 

Kisah Para Rasul 3:13

3:13 The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, ¹²  the God of our forefathers, ¹³  has glorified ¹⁴  his servant ¹⁵  Jesus, whom you handed over and rejected ¹⁶  in the presence of Pilate after he had decided ¹⁷  to release him.

[24:12]  ¹ tn Heb “make it happen before me today.” Although a number of English translations understand this as a request for success in the task (cf. NASB, NIV, NRSV) it is more likely that the servant is requesting an omen or sign from God (v. 14).

[24:12]  ² tn Heb “act in loyal love with” or “show kindness to.”

[22:32]  ³ sn A quotation from Exod 3:6.

[22:32]  ⁴ sn He is not God of the dead but of the living. Jesus’ point was that if God could identify himself as God of the three old patriarchs, then they must still be alive when God spoke to Moses; and so they must be raised.

[12:26]  ⁵ tn Grk “Now as for the dead that they are raised.”

[12:26]  ⁶ sn See Exod 3:6. Jesus used a common form of rabbinic citation here to refer to the passage in question.

[12:26]  ⁷ tn Grk “and the,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

[12:26]  ⁸ sn A quotation from Exod 3:6.

[20:37]  ⁹ tn Grk “But that the dead are raised even Moses revealed.”

[20:37]  ¹⁰ sn See Exod 3:6. Jesus used a common form of rabbinic citation here to refer to the passage in question.

[20:37]  ¹¹ sn A quotation from Exod 3:6.

[3:13]  ¹² tc ‡ The repetition of ὁ θεός (Jo qeos, “God”) before the names of Isaac and Jacob is found in Ì⁷⁴ א C (A D without article) 36 104 1175 pc lat. The omission of the second and third ὁ θεός is supported by B E Ψ 33 1739 Ï pc. The other time that Exod 3:6 is quoted in Acts (7:32) the best witnesses also lack the repeated ὁ θεός, but the three other times this OT passage is quoted in the NT the full form, with the thrice-mentioned θεός, is used (Matt 22:32; Mark 12:26; Luke 20:37). Scribes would be prone to conform the wording here to the LXX; the longer reading is thus most likely not authentic. NA²⁷ has the words in brackets, indicating doubts as to their authenticity.

[3:13]  ¹³ tn Or “ancestors”; Grk “fathers.”

[3:13]  sn The reference to the God of the patriarchs is a reminder that God is the God of the nation and of promises. The phrase God of our forefathers is from the Hebrew scriptures (Exod 3:6, 15-16; 4:5; see also the Jewish prayer known as “The Eighteen Benedictions”). Once again, event has led to explanation, or what is called the “sign and speech” pattern.

[3:13]  ¹⁴ sn Has glorified. Jesus is alive, raised and active, as the healing illustrates so dramatically how God honors him.

[3:13]  ¹⁵ sn His servant. The term servant has messianic connotations given the context of the promise, the note of suffering, and the titles and functions noted in vv. 14-15.

[3:13]  ¹⁶ tn Or “denied,” “disowned.”

[3:13]  ¹⁷ tn This genitive absolute construction could be understood as temporal (“when he had decided”) or concessive (“although he had decided”).
